DHS warns of terror threats using drones, chemicals and planes

The Department of Homeland Security has released an updated terror bulletin that highlights the threat of weaponized drones, chemical attacks and the continued targeting of commercial planes.

“We continue to face one of the most challenging threat environments since 9/11, as foreign terrorist organizations exploit the internet to inspire, enable or direct individuals already here in the homeland to commit terrorist acts,” according to the bulletin.

The National Terrorism Advisory System bulletin, which replaced the old color-coded system, provides the public and law enforcement a summary about ongoing and potentially new terror threats.
